Get a Campus Internship

MASSPIRG interns take on leadership on one or more of our campaigns and receive support and training from a team of experienced organizers and student leaders. Our internship program gives students the opportunity to take your education out of the classroom, do hands-on work, learn important skills, and make an impact. Interns are also eligible to get course credit in a variety of departments on campus. 

This semester, we’re working on issues such as fighting climate change, protecting our oceans, making textbooks more affordable, and alleviating hunger and homelessness.

Fill out this internship application form and we’ll be in touch to schedule an information session and interview!
